Breezy was born in Jackson and grew up ripping the Tetons. At age 18 she qualified to the U.S. National Team and has raced World Cup Downhill and Super G races since, qualifying for two Olympic Games. Between traveling the globe for ski racing, she loves her time in the Tetons, hunting for alpine lakes or running the trails with her dog, Shadow.

Which of Stio's values personally align to you?

Growing up in Jackson I have been shaped by the Tetons. I believe heartily in the mountain life and how that can shape a person for the better. I also love Stio's commitment to the environment and in lowering the impact of the fashion industry on the environment.

How do you create balance in your daily life?

I believe in doing everything well and putting your heart into what you love. I work incredibly hard at my sport but find relaxation in the places where I get to experience it. The stillness of nature is something at complete odds with the fast paced and sometimes brutal sport that is ski racing. I find nature pushes my training. And when I need a break from that I love to curl up fireside, knitting, reading or cooking food.

What is a bucket list activity you have yet to do or a place that you have yet to go?

Iceland

What is your go-to workout music?

I love America's Sweetheart by Elle King to pump me up for a good run, or a podcast from The Daily or FiveThirtyEight to stay up to date on the world. But I also love listening to nature.

What is a piece of advice you would give to someone who wants to pursue a life of mountain sports and adventures?

Working hard at this life is its own reward. It takes great bravery to fully invest yourself in these outdoor pursuits, but the rewards are unquantifiable.
